Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the product's great overall performance, excellent battery life, and extensive customization options. They frequently praise its comfortable feel, good weight, and comfortable grip. However, a significant concern raised by users is the issue of stick drift, which appears to develop quickly. Additionally, some customers have experienced problems with button quality and found the price to be a point of hesitation.

    Worthless after 2 months

    This broke after only two months. The right joystick, which I never use, spins freely when centered, and gets stuck when I move it up. Microsoft warranty is worthless as it costs $49 for shipping and parts. It lists specific parts but I don't even know if that will fix it. This is the most I have paid for a controller and have been very careful with it. My old, generic XBox controller lasted for years.

    [Employee of bestbuy] The controllers A button and Y button feel unresponsive at times when pressing it. I’ve heard that is a known problem with some elite controllers.

    The feel of the controller is quality. Being able to adjust stick tension has improved my gaming. The paddle shape and layout work for me, less accidental engagement under stress. Button mapping is sophisticated, easy, and accomplished on the Xbox. I’ve been using this controller for a couple months now and have had zero issues.

    A and B button miss inputs right out of the box. Absolutely no quality control at Microsoft. They just took some old controllers that didn't sell and slapped them in new packaging and called it "Core"

    Awesome controller. Back paddles take some getting used to but after a bit become super comfortable. The remapping ability is super useful and easy to use in Xbox. The hair-trigger adjustments work flawlessly with both triggers. The thumb sticks swap out really easy and overall it’s a great value for the money. Plus the added case is a nice bonus!
